This water pump no longer works but it was a nice discovery here at the historic Little Shasta Church. We located a historical marker in front of the church that gives some history behind it and reads:
Dedicated to the memory of the
Pioneers of Little Shasta Valley
who raised this House to the Glory of God.On March 5, 1876
The Little Shasta Congregational Church
was formed. It was in 1877
that the first subscriptions were
taken for the present building.
One year later on July 28, 1878
the church construction was completed
and the dedication took place. Dedicated by the
Siskiyou Chapter 8-131-CA
Daughters of the American Revolution
